tl;dr We’re so excited to share that we now offer support for Bitcoin on Spritz! Starting today you can off-ramp, pay bills directly from your Bitcoin wallet, or load a SpritzCard with Bitcoin to buy anything in the real world! Don’t worry, they don’t have to accept Bitcoin for you to be able to use it.
Bitcoin was created with the intention of enabling a self-custodial financial system, but until it can be used in the real world, its limitations as a currency are quite significant. Today we’re thrilled to announce that we’re bringing real-world utility to Bitcoin with support on Spritz!
Adding support for the Bitcoin network is important to us, and we’re happy to finally be able to offer more utility for Bitcoin users by enabling payments to any merchant, bank account, or billing provider in the United States with Bitcoin. Gone are the days when you have to sit around and wait for financial institutions to accept Bitcoin. Take control of your finances and use your crypto in the way it was meant to be used!
Spritz is DeFi’s bridge to the real world. With Spritz, you can off-ramp or pay bills with crypto directly from your self-custodial wallet in just the click of a button. Just create your account, add your billing accounts, and send a transaction! Spritz makes it easy to use your Bitcoin in the real world.
You can also choose to load your SpritzCard, which will let you make payments at any merchant that accepts Visa—that’s over 11 million locations worldwide! Using your SpritzCard lets you unlock more real-world utility out of your crypto earnings with the click of a button. Just load your card, add it to your mobile wallet such as ApplePay or Google Wallet, and use your card as a payment method anywhere that accepts Visa!
From now until the Fourth of July 🇺🇸 you can earn $50 by being one of the first 50 people to make $1000 or more in transactions using Bitcoin on Spritz! Anyone can qualify for this reward, you just have to be within the first 50 people to complete $1000 in transactions using Bitcoin before July 4 and we’ll add a credit to your account during the first two weeks of July!
Using Bitcoin on Spritz is easy! Here’s how:
1. Create or log into your Spritz account
2. Enter your bank account and routing number into the off-ramp section of Spritz, or add your bills by selecting a billing provider and entering your account information. Don’t worry, this doesn’t give Spritz access to your accounts.
3. Enter your wallet information when you select Bitcoin as a payment option.
4. Set up and send the transaction!
That’s it! See how easy it is to use your Bitcoin in the real world?
